By the way sorry that I've not yet put up contact details for Ray Wyse, the UKIP candidate. The only reason I haven't is that I haven't been provided them yet and couldn't manage to find them for myself using the power of Google. If anyone out there can help please get in touch.
Here are the questions I'm posing ...
Questions for all candidates
Reasons for standing
Why did you decide to
stand for Cornwall Council in Redruth South division?
What qualifies you to be a
good Cornwall Councillor for Redruth South?
Views on Local Government & Democracy
Do you believe that
Councillors’ allowances are too high, too low or about right?
Usually there is a low
turn out at Local elections in Redruth. How do you think you could engage
people more to get involved in local politics?
If you are elected, how
will you keep in touch?
Welfare Reform
The Government is reducing
welfare benefits and the Council has decided to charge people who previously
received Council Tax benefit. Do you agree with what they are doing? How do you
think this will impact the community in Redruth South? What are your ideas for
dealing with these impacts?
Priorities for Cornwall & Redruth
Are you satisfied with the
way Redruth Town Centre is developing? What do you think could and should be
done to invigorate the town?
What do you see as
Cornwall’s main priorities over the next 4 years and how can Cornwall Council
help to address them?
Cornwall Council has
frozen Council Tax again for next year and is planning to make some budget cuts
in order to balance the books. This looks likely to mean reductions in some
Council services and result in some job losses. Do you agree with the decision
to freeze Council Tax for another year?
What do you consider
should be the main principles underpinning financial strategy for 2014/15 and
beyond?
Health and Social Services
There is a policy agenda
to bring Social Care and Health services together. What do you see as the main
risks and opportunities for Cornwall arising from this?
Law & Order / Public Safety
What are your views on how
policing works in Redruth South? How could it be improved?
